45cellar Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 Thanks Harry I was trying to find something out. It's good that different takes were released like this. Only a few would have heard them otherwise. I wonder how many have yet to surface on CD etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Citizen P Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Can`t find a clip, but whats the story behind the alternative take to These things, i have it on a motown lp, was it released on any other format? hiya H. There is a clip on youtube-you have to trawl a few, but I've put it on Heywoods facebook page. However, I have it on Motown Chartbusters 6- don't know if it's on any others, but the same take is on the first Motown Northern Soul CD that Chris King comped. Maybe it snuck out in Europe- who knows? ATB Tony Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Can`t find a clip, but whats the story behind the alternative take to These things, i have it on a motown lp, was it released on any other format? It was only on the 1st pressing run Harry, no idea how many got through but it was a mistake rectified on the other presses and later on the CD. I have a 1st run with the alt take. Its funny to see the dancers faces as they mime the wrong words. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Tomangoes Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 It was a privilege to see these songbirds perform at the 2017 Detroit a go go event followed by a visit to the Motown museum. 42 years after first hearing These things...at the youthy, it still sounded fresh.
